About this listen
Seventy years ago, the world ended in chaos.
Portals appeared on Earth, forcing everyone to make a choice: Enter or die. However, if they managed to survive through all twelve planets in the system, they would be allowed to return home. Humanity fought bitterly and, in the end, succeeded, but the cost was high.
Nate lost everyone he’s cared about, and after stepping through the final portal, he makes a shocking discovery. Earth is part of the system and what’s left of humanity is too weak to go home. Returning to the scene of the battle, Nate finds the unexpected–a new portal. A single step takes him back in time, to the day when the end of the world began.
Given the chance to fix the mistakes of his past, Nate will do all he can to ensure that humanity–and more importantly, his family–is strong enough to survive this time around. Manipulating events won't be easy. Knowledge is power but, more importantly, in the System of Twelve, power is power.
Rewriting history was never on Nate’s to-do list, but seeing as he’s the only viable candidate, he’ll give it his best shot or die trying.
End of the World is a progression fantasy with GameLit and tower climber elements.

As with all these stories the butterfly effect is strong with even small changes having knock on effects and there lies part of the story as the MC tackles with what they know, what they must do and with what now is.
Told by the amazing JTJ of SBT his narration adds layers of gravitas to the MC giving him the weight of someone with experience rather than a clueless 20 year old who is winging it.
A great addition to ones collection.
An exciting time reset story with a non OP MC

Instead the MC here is inexplicably losing most encounters he comes across or almost dying most of the time. Throw in some caricature russian villains : "we are big strong men, you are little woman" .... and you wonder what the author was thinking.
The author also seems to be in love with exposition, especially in fight scenes, which really detracts from the combat as he explains every thought in the MCs head and why he is acting the way he is.
The ending of the novel also came out of nowhere and not in a good way. Seemed extremely out of character for the MC we had seen so far and was very unsatisfying.
Only thing saving this novel is the potential of the premise and the great voice acting from Soundbooth Theatre which I really enjoyed.
A lot of potential

The only thing that turned me off a bit was the combat descriptions seemed overly chaotic, cool but needed a 2nd listen to fully understand what was going on.
JTJ's portrayal of Nate was haunting. Came off as someone who has seen some things and is scarred because of them. Perfect fit for Nate and his situation.
Looking forward to book 2.
